In scalar control, some standard features are not available.

IR compensation for a scalar controlled drive IR stands for voltage.

I (current) × R (resistance) = U (voltage).

IR compensation is active only when the motor control mode is scalar.

When IR compensation is activated, the drive gives an extra voltage

boost to the motor at low speeds. IR compensation is useful in applications that

require a high break-away torque. In direct torque control (DTC) mode, IR

compensation is automatic and manual adjustment is not needed.

Two braking power levels are available:

• Moderate braking provides faster deceleration compared to a situation where flux

braking is disabled. The flux level of the motor is limited to prevent excessive

heating of the motor.

• Full braking exploits almost all available current to convert the mechanical braking

energy to motor thermal energy. Braking time is shorter compared to moderate

braking. In cyclic use, motor heating may be significant.
